We carefully handle your carpet, Oriental and area rugs and upholstered furniture as if they were our own.

Our premium pads offer greater safety with maximum non-slip traction, extended rug wear, greater comfort - and they are hypoallergenic. Supreme is made from recycled materials and is non-allergenic. It has enough cushion to protect the rug from foot impacts and increase comfort, will contain fine grit to help prevent floor damage and has a synthetic rubber backing to resist movement.

For most stone - especially very porous stones like hone-finished limestone and selective granites - the application of a quality penetrating sealer is highly recommended. The application of a penetrating sealer to a highly polished stone may not be necessary, but when in doubt it doesn't hurt to have it sealed. If it the sealing prevents some staining, you've saved yourself the cost of a stain removal service. Most stone sealers will not alter the original finish produced by the factory.

Applying a pre-manufactured fringe allows for a significant cost saving over fringe woven in by hand, and is appropriate for use on machine-made rugs as well as for many hand-knotted rugs. We have a selection of types and natural shades of pre-manufactured carpet fringe to choose from including brush, single knot, double knot and large knot. Area rugs with fringe require special care.

We have the largest in-stock supply of carpet edge treatments, using only top-quality, made in the USA materials. There is a difference with D. A. Burns carpet binding. We use heavyweight binding materials that will far outlast the lightweight mesh commonly used by economy binding companies.

We also offer a discount program for our on-location cleaning services. Our wall-to-wall carpet cleaning service is discounted 25%, when we are not requested to move any furnishings. For carpet cleaning jobs greater than 1000 square feet, we discount our price (20% - 30%) as the size of the job grows. Our on-location upholstery cleaning service is discounted 20%, passing on the savings from not incurring pickup and delivery expenses.

read moreD. A. Burns offers a rug tip shearing service that restores the brilliance to your rug when its appearance has been diminished due to exposure to light and wear. Tip shearing can also remove face yarn damage of rugs that have been subjected to harsh chemicals during manufacture or have loose tufts "sprouting" from the carpet pile. These conditions usually require removal of only a tiny fraction of the end of the carpet yarn. It is possible to remove more pile height if a change in appearance is desired.
